President’s Message

Well, Hello!  Were you looking for someone?  Possibly a new friend?  I assure you that you have come to the right place!  This web site belongs to a women’s club that is dedicated to welcoming prospective members new to our area.  There are hundreds of ladies waiting to meet you and to share some fun activities.   

The mission of the Westside Newcomers Club (WNC as we call ourselves) is to “provide a social environment for newcomers to the Las Vegas area in which to meet and establish new friendships”.  We welcome anyone who is very new to our area.  But we also welcome those who have lived here for ten years or less or have recently had a life-changing experience such as the loss of a spouse, retirement, etc.  We do this because we know that now is probably when you need a friend the most.

If you want to add some quality time and fun to your life, WNC offers over twenty-five different activities that are available for your pleasure.   Consider such things as Bridge, Golf, Mah Jongg, Canasta, Book Club, Bowling, Scrap Booking, Travel Club and way too many more to mention here. We encourage you to try any and all that interest you to find your niche. I can promise that each activity you try will bring a prospective new friend to your experience. 

A way to learn more about your new area is to attend our monthly luncheons which are held at a local venue. In addition to good food and pleasant conversation, each luncheon includes a pleasurable program.  Among our members’ favorites are our holiday luncheon, a fashion show and the annual visit by the Mayor of Las Vegas.  There are many programs that we know will capture your interest and leave you anticipating the next month’s event! It is yet another chance to meet some of our WNC members who are as anxious to meet you as you are to meet them.

How do I get started, did you ask?  It’s really very simple.  On the first Wednesday of each month our Board of Directors meets to conduct WNC’s business. Following that meeting, at 10:30 a.m. our “New Member Coffee” will begin.  This will present you with the opportunity to meet many of our members and Executive Officers.  The Chair of each activity will give a short report to give you a general idea of what her particular activity entails.  If you decide to join WNC the day you come to the coffee, you will receive a Directory (full of details) and a copy of our current Newsletter. Our monthly Newsletter is our life-line to every activity that is available. So where do I go, did you ask?  Just come to the Community Room of the Grace in the Desert Episcopal Church, 2022 Spring Gate Lane, Las Vegas, 89134, for refreshments and the beginning of what could possibly be the “rest of your life”.

As President of WNC, I look forward to meeting you as a new member and hope to see you at many of our upcoming activities and luncheons.

Chris Ela, President
